Very good Panurge, I enjoy reading your analysis. Got me thinking.

Ozzy wasn't hero or villian, he was "The Player to Beat"... Ozzy's heroic superman edit peaked in ep.4 when he found the idol, starred in a challenge, and was praised by the fans.

Finally, I don't think "scheming too much is bad" was a major theme.

They were reinforcing it by how he had no friends and how he had to win immunity that sort of things.

The rest I can understand even though I don't agree 100%.

Jason was more of an underdog who people learned to appreciate and somehow root for even though he started the season off as an arrogant jerk. He became sympathetic like Erik in the episode where Parvati called him a loser. Yeah he was a dumb player, but it wasn't 100% the storyline he got.

My idea was to explain how different players are portrayed to fit certain roles and how, often, those edits are interdependent.
